Recommend me an MP3 player / Should I get a used one?

A few weeks ago, my mp3 player broke. It was an iRiver h10, and I was in love with it. It had literally never given me any problems, I loved the interface, the little scroll bar, I loved everything about it. So when it broke, I figured I would just get a new one.
Apparently, they don't make them anymore. So now I need to get a new mp3 player, but all of the ones iRiver makes now are literally nothing like the h10.
I need something that holds a lot of songs, anywhere from 10 - 20 gigabytes is fine. Also, a big selling point is that it needs to be durable. The h10 was relativley big in terms of mp3 players, but I liked it because it was so durable. I dropped it so many times and nothing ever happened to it. The screen also wasn't all soft, it was a hard plastic screen. This is also kind of important.
Also, the h10 had a radio, and a mic to record things. This was really awesome, but I don't know of any other players that have this. I used the mic to record thigns all the time, my freinds and I play music a lot.
TL;DR: Really, I'm just looking for some durable, dependable mp3 player. I don't need videos or pictures or any extras, just something with a nice interface thats easy to navigate, and won't break.
Edit: I just found these two:

Thats exactly what I had before. Should get it? One is 'refurbished', I'm not sure what that means for electronics.
